AHMM - dry storage question - NJFishing.com Your Best Online Source for Fishing Information in New Jersey

I have been keeping my boat at AHMM April through October on trailer for the last couple of years. Things have generally worked out well. I have a few questions for anybody out there in the know:

What are the chances of ramp and floaters along ramp being avaialble and open for launcing in April?

Given that we have not been able to get into our designated spot until late May due to many of the sailboats still being on the hard until Memorial Day... what are the chances of that happening with all the debris, damaged boats from Sandy and construction machines and materials being around?

Finally, if we actually get a spot along the fence where we have been historically, will there be the fresh water hookup along the fence so we can flush the engine and clean up the boat after use? (This is critical)

Thanks for any input!

I thought the whole purpose of these boards was to share info????

I was asking the board because I happened to be browsing the board and was just thinking about it so I posted it.

If you don't want to answer DON'T!

If someone out there had already gathered this info and was willing to share great!

Then I would not be calling and re asking stuff that may be known to some already.

Sorry to waste your precious time Capt Frank

Mikey topaz - thanks for the info! Much appreciated.

Capt. Debbie · #7 02-25-2013, 11:13 AM

What information are you sharing? Or just complaining they don't tell you anything.

Only the managers of a specific marina are deciding after unprecedented damages. There is no "usually do" since it last happened 40 or 50 years ago in a different marina configuration with those expericned workers likely all dead or hopelessly senile. LMAO

See suggestion by Cancun Pete.... Or just have someone call for you. 732-291-1670

To be constructive- Only AHMM can predict what they intend to do or not to do.
